BlackBerry PlayBook shows multitasking chops on video

Rogers today held their TabLife event, which invited a series of speakers to discuss the future of tablet computing in both the consumer and enterprise markets, obviously from a Rogers perspective.  David Neale, Vice President of Special Projects at Research In Motion was on hand to demo the new Blackberry PlayBook and field some questions from the attendees.

This short video shows the 7 inch PlayBook in action.  While not yet optimized for dual core processing it nevertheless managed to show off it’s multitasking features rather well.  While playing a 1080p video in the background he was able to continue to use the device for other tasks.  While we have a longer form video where the PlayBook is discussed in more detail (coming soon), Mr. Neale in response to the rumours on whether the device was real or not summed it up with “It does live.  It is amazing.”

If you didn’t know yet, it’s pretty clear that Rogers is planning on being a launch partner for RIMs entry in the tablet market.
